Ok... enough of craps. Let's be serious. After two excellent read, I thought the trend will continues... At the end, the trend is no more my friend as it finally bends.... This is a lousy book to me. In the first place, the title itself is very misleading. At least, it is not typical hedge fund stuff as what I expected. To be honest, if I read through some of the contents before I bought this, I would not be reviewing this book at the moment. In short, this book is totally "off target" to me.
To be frank, info provided in the book is nothing new under the sun. In fact, certain parts are rather shallow that we can easily google on it. In another words, it is nothing specific to follow the big brothers investing worldwide. The whole thing getting worse when certain info provided are not accurate. Take the Hangseng Index as a good example. A "shallow" investor like me also realized that HangSeng Index does not represent China as their main index. So, when certain facts are being twisted (or not being studied precisely) with no solid reason, I know I am reading a wrong book.
Finally... I am not those who go against global investing. In fact, it was exactly my belief during my earlier stage of investment career. However; these days I appreciate more resting time in view that age is really catching up. As such, this book perhaps does not arrive on my shelf at the right time. In my humble opinion, unless you are so ignorant of what the world outside of US, this book should not be your choice even to kill off your boring time. Having said that... I am rating this book at 0/10. What a disappointment!
